Backable Executives

Most PE leaders don’t fully understand the value of executing the “Executive First” / Backable Executive model when chasing proprietary acquisition prospects. Yes, they get the value of using subject matter executives (SMEs) and CEOs to serve as River Guides and Due Diligence consultants.
